The View's Kyle Falconer Hospitalized In Japan

Kyle Falconver, frontman for the Scottish group The View, had a rough time in Japan. While in Tokyo to promote their debut LP, Hats Off To The Buskers, the singer fell ill with a case of blood poisoning. Nasty!

Gigwise reported that this was due to septicaemia from a blister on his foot. A spokesperson for the Sunday Mirror added: "The medics kept him in overnight and he was given a course of antibiotics. But he has been warned to start looking after himself or he is going to end up very sick indeed."

This band has had some miserable luck as of late. Immigration problems... blood poisoning... hopefully things will turn around for the lads soon. Get well soon Kyle!
